Hey, sorry, but in one place, you are not right. At 52.38, you said the sponsor would be representative. I think it's not compulsory, though. Principal applicant can file by themselves without choosing sponsor as a representative.

[@canadadreamers_]

I dont remember if this was mendetory to have a representative, but there is no harm choosing your spouse (sponsor) as one. Thanks for your comment. please like share and subscribe :)

[@ricoobena2802]

Hello I'm not a computer literate. How can I submit my spousal sponsorship by hard copies. Is there a package?

[@desigeekchishi]

@6:04 you are telling to fill address of the sponcerer, but if the PA is in India, and IMM0008 is for PA and PA's information, why address of sponcerer? in another video the person is telling to put PA's address. please help what to write ?

[@canadadreamers_]

Hello, thanks for watching. This address is for any correspondence which IRCC wants to send to you. Since they generally dont send any documents abroad (outside of canada), or even if they send, it will take some time. So it’s just the mailing address where you want to receive any physical documents which IRCC may send. Now a days everything is online, so this doesn’t matter I believe. Hope this helps.

At 43:51, on IMM 5562, you filled in your own travel information (as the sponsor), but at the top it says that this information is only required if you ARE NOT a citizen or permanent resident. Was this a mistake, or am I misunderstanding the instructions?

[@singhincanada0221]

he is the sponsor and it says to list out the spouse (in this case the sponsor) travel details to and fro from the country of residence which is canada as well since he is a permanent resident. Hope this makes sense.

[@MerukaKitchen]

Hi, thanks for watching. Yes I know. There was a lot of confusion when I was filling the forms. But many people at that time told me that there is no harm giving little bit of extra information to be on safer side.

Hi, Your videos are very helpful. Could you let me know what needs to be uploaded as part of Proof of Status?

First create the online account, fill all the forms and upload all the proofs. Make the payment online. Attach the receipt on the same portal.

Hi, Thanks for watching. Yes, you can. you need to mention in a separate letter of explaination that why you dont have such documents. for job, you can say that you are new here and still searching for the jobs, and since you are new (Asuming you landed in 2024), you have nothing to file for 2023 tax, hence no NOA (notice of assessment). NOA is same as ITR in india. Hope this helps, please like share and subscribe :)

Hi! The address I wrote exceeds 80 characters. You said that you would talk about a letter of explanation in the next video, but I couldn't find one. Can you please explain how I should write a letter of explanation?

[@canadadreamers_]

Hi sorry, I couldn’t make that video so far. But it was a simple word document and I referenced the form number section number question number etc and then wrote complete address.

[@cev6516]

I’m confused with the co signer part. How come you click no if it says here consigners must be the spouse or common law partner

[@canadadreamers_]

Hello, thanks for watching. If you look into the official Complete Guide from IRCC, it says that if you are sponsoring your spouse then then there is no co signer. Link for complete guide is in the description. Hope this is helpful. Please like share and subscribe:)

[@paulahuynh6846]

Thanks so much for your video. I really appreciate it. I want to ask, both my partner (Canadian citizen) and I are living together and outside of Canada, should I choose the Family Class as I am (sponsored) outside of Canada?

[@canadadreamers_]

Hello, thanks for watching. Yes if you (sponsored person) do not have any Canadian visa, you only have the option to choose the family class (outland) application, and since your partner is already a citizen, can live inside or outside of canada anytime with no such restrictions. Hope this helps. Please like share and subscribe:)

Hi, in the form IMM 0008 it now says you must include your spouse if applicable. I am confused, because my spouse is sponsoring me. Do I still have to include her as a dependant in the form? Please guide me.

[@KelvinJoshua-r5j]

Hi please my wife is not coming it’s only my dependent that want to move to Canada now do I need to filling the Notary form or not thanks

[@054hob]

For 5532, we print pdf and then used the adobe signature to draw our signatures. Is that acceptable or do we have to type our name? It only states to digitally sign, whereas 1344 specifically says to type in your name

[@canadadreamers_]

Hwy, sorry for the late resposne. things have changed from IRCC, they accept the digital signature for most of the forms now. Please see the latest updates from IRCC. digital signatures are accepted.

Thank you so much for the video, my question is if I am PR and sponsoring my spouse do I need to create a GC key for my partner or I can directly add her to my PR portal application?

Hello thanks for reaching out. Ideally you should have written the Present there. If you have bot submitted then you can make the changes. But it you have submitted then we only can wait and pray that it doesn’t create any issues. Just dont panic. 🤞

Hey first of all I really appreciate the information u hv given in detail which is really helpful.....Actually I have one question regarding the timeline of my education as I have gap in between as I have completed my diploma in 5 yrs which was of 3 yrs....so how I have to mention my education yrs timeline....can u please tell me the details?????

[@canadadreamers_]

thanks for watching. I think you can just write start and end year of your diploma. They only ask start and end date, not the duration of diploma or degree. They ask the number of year in separate question for all of your education, like primary secondary college masters etc, you can fill 5 there because you completed that in 5 years. That’s my thought and suggestions, please feel free to discuss with someone else too. Hope this is helpful. Please like share and subscribe :)

You can add the additional details on separate paper. Mention the form number, section number, part number, question number etc to reference it correctly and scan this document and attach at the end of the respective form. Also include a brief note in your letter of explanation document that you have added an additional page to that form in order to accommodate your longer work history. Hope this is helpful.

[@canadadreamers_]

Offer letter is fine, but it does not say whether you started the job or not. however, having a job in not mandetory to sponsor your spouse. You just need to proof that you can take care of your partern once they are in Canada. NOA is must. Even if you dont have these docs, please write a detailed explaination letter saying that why you dont have these. and how can you take care of your parterns expenses?

the section states that if the Spouse is a canadian citizen or pr you do no,t need to provide it. (That means since they already live in canada or been to canada , IRCC has their travel history which u do not need to provide.)

Hello, thanks for reaching out. No, it’s not mandatory. You can still use your old passport, and provide the different current address in the address history section. Just make sure your all information matches with whatever you are filling. Passport address can be different from the one where someone lives. Hope this helps. Please like share and subscribe :)

[@canadadreamers_]

Hello, thanks for reaching out. Birth certificate is one of the most important documents for the principal applicant. Try if you can get a new one soon. I am not sure if you can write a letter of explanation mentioning that why you don’t have a birth certificate. Try to get a late registered birth certificate from your state government. Check online for the process and timeline. Also watch another youtube video (Hit Submit Canada). He has also talked about the birth certificate in one of his videos.
